@eje211 said in Dolphin works from the GUI but not from Emulation Station:

There are still a few more things to configure, such as getting RetroPie's shortcuts to work in Dolphin, but at least the games start!

If you are referring to the Hotkeys, you would have to be running lr-dolphin for that to work. The standalone emulator does have the ability to configure hotkeys, but you will need to do it through the dolphin settings menu.

@Grumbles I've found that any images over 1000 pixels either vertical or horizontal either won't load, or are slow to load. The sweet spot for HD resolution and speed seems to be in 750-850 range. Don't use 300 dpi, drop it to 144 or 72 dpi as well.

I've done this to all of my images and I'm happy with the look and load speed on a 55" screen.

One last one .. make sure the size of the file is not over 900k. Reduce it to around 600-500k as long as it doesn't screw-up the quality.

I'm running a Pi3b+, a highly modified version of Eudora with custom system pics and logos if you need to know

@mitu Great, will give it a try then!

OK time for feedback. I have succeed to download videos and boxart only, but without game description. How did I do (please, remember that I am on Ubuntu) :

download the latest Stephen's scraper program here : https://github.com/sselph/scraper/releases and put the scraper file into the wii (or the related console) directory list item have your own videos into a folder named for example videos download boxarts on libretro project : http://thumbnailpacks.libretro.com/ and put them into a folder named for example boxart make sure that iso names are EXACTLY the same as boxart and videos names use Krenamer or any other batch rename program to rename :
-boxarts : add -imagesuffix before .png extension
-videos : add -videosuffix before .mp4 extension put all boxart and video files into the same folder named images (very important) then open a terminal and go to the rom directory cd /RetroPie/roms/wii/ and put the following command : ./scraper -add_not_found=true -download_videos=false -img_format=png -download_images=false. For your information :
-add_not_found=truemeans it adds roms that are not found as an empty gamelist entry
-download_videos=falsemeans it checks the local videos only
-img_format=pngmeans it checks the png files (because default check is jpg)
-download_images=falsemeans it checks the local images only

Ultimately, it doesn't matter too much. You can just leave it in the folder structure that your preferred scraper creates, or change it entirely. As long as gamelist.xml points to the correct location, use whatever strikes your fancy.

The exception to this is that runcommand prefers there to be an images folder inside each system if it is going to use individual rom launching pictures. I don't know if there is a way to change that default location.
